• GOP Congressman Calls Evolution & the Big Bang Theory ‘Lies Straight From the Pit of Hell’

  October 8, 2012 at 5:46pm

  That this man sits on the House Committee on Science, Space and Technology is a national disgrace and a shame to our great country. How an otherwise intelligent man can be so willfully ignorant is astounding to me. Creationists in general, and young-earthers in particular, cause me to despair for the future.

• Beck: It’s Amazing What We Can Accomplish When We End the Blame Game

  June 28, 2012 at 1:33am

  I’m surprised that Glenn Beck would stand so casually propped against his replica of the Resolute desk. Especially after how he went on and on about respecting everything in ‘the oval’ when he first revealed it. If you mean what you say Glenn, then don’t wear jeans and sneakers, don’t disrespect the office by sitting on the desk, and put on a neck-tie. You were the one, after all, who went after Obama (quite rightly) for putting his feet up on the Resolute desk. Don’t be a hypocrite.

• Country Singer Carrie Underwood Cites Her Christian Faith in Gay Marriage Endorsement

  Good on ya Carrie Underwood. I am glad to see that your sense of human decency outweighs your adherence to scriptural literalism.

• Nearly Half of Americans Believe in Creationism Over Evolution — Do You? (Poll)

  June 4, 2012 at 5:19pm

  Statistics like this make me embarrassed to be an American. And I don’t say that lightly.

  If you honestly, truly, genuinely, gun-to-your-head, believe that the preponderance of all available evidence points to man being ‘created’ in his current form, separate from all other primates who also were created with no shared common ancestor between them, then you are an embarrassment.

  How an educated, first-world Westerner could possibly be so incapable of critical thinking, so beholden to religious dogma,… it boggles the mind. I am ashamed that these same people are my countrymen.

• Shock Video: Christian Pastor Preaches That the Government Should Kill Gays

  May 31, 2012 at 8:10pm

  The pastor is correct. The scriptures do say that homosexuals should be put to death. If christians truly believe that the bible is the word of god, then what’s there to be worried about? After all, god’s laws are eternal, inviolable, and absolute. It’s as Glenn Beck says, god is the one constant throughout all eternity; the one thing you can put your trust in because he will never change. It is therefore the height of arrogance to allege that somehow humanity has progressed beyond god’s laws. That the legal minds of men are superior to that of the creator of the universe.
  Stand up for your faith christians! Your god demands blood!

  How fortunate it is that I don’t buy a word of any of it. The scriptures were written by a savage, barbaric people living in a bronze age desert more than three millennia ago. The sooner we divorce ourselves from their cruel notions of morality the better.

• ‘Ain’t No Homos Gonna Make It to Heaven’: Young Child Allegedly Singing Anti-Gay Church Song Sparks National Controversy

  May 30, 2012 at 6:30pm

  The kid is right, according to the scripture, unrepentant homosexuals aren’t going to make it to heaven. The thing is though… heaven isn’t real. Nor is god, or any of the other nonsense that the religious attempt to deceive us with.
  Poor kid. He’s being taught to be a bigot and he isn’t even aware it’s happening.

  Notice how quick that congregation is to leap to their feet and applaud when the kid reaches that line, “Ain’t no homos gonna make it to heaven.” I somehow doubt that they’d be quite that enthusiastic about other, less judgmental, less exclusive tenants of their faith. These people seem to be elated at the thought of excluding a group of people from their notion of heaven. Positively joyous. Somehow, that doesn’t seem to be be in the same mold as the ‘kindness,’ ‘love,’ and ‘forgiveness’ qualities that these christians like to portray their religion as being all about.

• Conservative Jewish Seminary to Allow Gays to Become Rabbis

  April 21, 2012 at 3:35pm

  This is wonderful news! I, myself, am a committed atheist, but it gives me a warm feeling of hope to read stories like this. Progress, in the right direction, is being made. Religious mandates that contradict basic human decency are being increasingly ignored.
  While I do not believe that there will ever be a day when humanity is truly free of religion, I do hope we will live to see faith treated as more of a personal hobby than an actual set of absolute rules and certitudes.

• Pastor Introducing Santorum Criticized for Allegedly Telling Non-Christians to ‘Get Out!’ of America if They Disagree

  March 20, 2012 at 6:49pm

  People like this pastor make me shake my head. I always feel depressed after listening to such ramblings. He really believes in what he’s saying. There is no concept of seperation of church and state in his mind. To him, being American is inseperable from being (Protestant) Christian. In this pastor’s mind, Jesus was a blond haired, blue-eyed, English speaker, who personally guided each of the founding fathers’ hands in crafting the Constitution. (sigh) Okay. Sure.

  Well said, ChameleonX.

  Disgusting. Thankfully, I’m out of high school and don’t have to sit through manditory tripe like this.
